John of God Tours & Trips

Who is John of God? How do these miracles happen?

John of God (Joao de Deus) is a full trance medium. A medium is a person who is a spiritual intermediary between the living and the dead. Joao allows good spirits to use his body to do healing work. Spirits of saints and doctors who have already passed into the spirit world come through John of God and use his body to heal people. He does not remember anything that happens while he is in trance. The spirits that come through are referred to as “entities”. There are about 37 that come through on a regular basis and many other good spirits are hovering around to help with the work.

For over 50 years John of God has been selflessly helping millions of people to heal by allowing these entities of a higher vibration to come through. The healing that occurs can be physical, mental or emotional healing. The healing is always spiritual.

John of God is a very humble and giving man. His gift became known when he was a teenager. Though he was loved by many, he was persecuted, beaten and jailed by others. Yet, he continued with his calling. At one point the persecutions became so bad that the Brazilian military took him in. He did healings for the military personnel and their families for nine years in exchange for protection. Eventually the entities insisted that he could no longer limit himself to a privileged few. The entities agreed that they would take care of him if he would devote himself to humanity.

In later years he received many high honors for his work. Though several court cases have been brought up against him, they have been dismissed as a result of his healing many high officials and their families. They can no longer say he is a fraud and they seem to protect him now and keep him out of jail so that he can proceed with his work.

John of God treats the rich, famous and poor. All are welcome and no one is turned away for lack of funds. People make donations, if they like, and John of God very generously uses some of that money to help the poor in the community. He has a soup kitchen for people who are hungry and he even sends some local people to college who would not otherwise be able to afford it. He makes sure that people who cannot afford the healing herbs are given the herbs they need.

John Of God works very hard often traveling to help people who cannot afford to travel to see him in Abadiania. As his fame grew the number of sick showing up multiplied. While working in Bele Horizonte many years ago he began to feel quite sick. Joao, who had been burning the candle at both ends, had suffered a massive stroke.

Joao was taken to the hospital to see where the brain blockage had occurred. Just as the test began all of the equipment failed! Repairs were quickly carried out and the tests resumed. Once again the equipment mysteriously burned out. The doctors prepared Joao for surgery but when they weren’t looking he slipped out of the hospital and went home. He was only 45 years old and the stroke left him paralyzed down one side of his body.

In spite of his paralysis he carried on with his healing work. He continued on this way for some months and eventually the entities instructed Joao to operate on himself. In front of a fascinated crowd, he performed a visible surgery showing no signs of discomfort. To everyones delight, he was renewed and his paralysis was gone.

John of God is a gentle, loving soul with an extraordinary caring for humanity. Sometimes people confuse John of God - the man - with the entities that come through him to do the healing. John of God (Joao) is the vehicle. In closing I would like share an often cited quote from John of God... “I have never healed anyone. It is God who heals.”

When Western medicine and psychotherapy fail, people open to divine healing. The saints and doctors that come through John of God heal when all else has failed.
